Property Summary
The Piggery at Stockham Farm, near Dulverton (Somerset) is a detached converted stone barn situated in the hills just 1.4 miles from the country town of Dulverton, in the beautiful Exmoor National Park. Sleeping up to 6 guests and dog-friendly, this lovely cottage also has stabling available on-site

Main Description
The Piggery at Stockham Farm, Dulverton (Somerset) has been recently refurbished to an extremely high standard and now offers comfortable holiday accommodation for up to 6 guests. Initially, the building served as a barn, made from traditional stone, and housed many animals, including but not exclusively pigs! The property was first converted into a living accommodation over 30 years ago and the recent renovation (2018-19) has maintained as many of the original features as possible, including oak beams and quirky elements in every room.

Sleeps up to 6 guests in three bedrooms
Two king-size double beds and one twin bedroom
Two bathrooms (one with walk-in shower and one bath with hand-held shower attachment)
Stunning views from the upstairs bedroom and from the terrace beside the cottage
Underfloor heating throughout the downstairs
Sitting-dining room with efficient gas-fired 'wood-burner'
Patio with outside seating directly beside the cottage
Dogs welcome (3 max) for supplement of £30 per dog
Heating, electricity and wifi included
Bed linen and towels are provided
Arrive from 4 pm

Well-behaved dogs welcome (maximum of 3) for a £30 supplement per dog. Sorry, no puppies (aged less than 12 months). Please do not allow your dogs in the bedrooms, on the furniture or leave them unattended.

We also welcome horses to stay with their owners at Stockham Farm. We are experienced equestrians ourselves and the farm has British Horse Society 'Horses Welcome' accreditation. The riding out from Stockham is fabulous, with no need to use roads to reach moorland, fields, riverside tracks, woodland etc. Horses are charged at £20 per horse/pony per night either on DIY livery in beautiful stone stables or on turnout in fenced paddocks. Hay and straw included in the price.

Indoor Description
The entrance to The Piggery opens into a hallway, turn to the right into the sitting-dining room, with comfy sofas and a scrubbed pine table and chairs, there's a gas 'wood burning' stove, a smart TV and books and games to enjoy too. From the hallway, a few steps lead into the kitchen which is fully fitted with a dishwasher, washing machine, fan assisted oven, ceramic hob and microwave. It is roomy enough for a window seat and a chair to sit and chat while someone else does the cooking! A few more steps lead to the lower-level bedrooms, one twin bedroom and one double, which has a king-size bed. Adjacent to the bedrooms is a shower room comprising a walk-in shower, toilet and hand basin.

One the first floor there is the third bedroom (king-size double bed) and bathroom comprising a bath, with hand-held shower attachment, toilet and hand basin. The view from the upstairs bedroom is truly jaw-dropping – over fields, woodland and across the Exe Valley.

Bed linen and towels are provided, but please bring your own beach towels and dog towels (if appropriate).

A welcome pack of a bottle of sparkling wine, homemade scones, Cornish clotted cream, locally made jam and a small bottle of milk will be provided. You will find a small quantity of tea, coffee, sugar, olive oil etc. in the kitchen to get you started.

Outdoor Description
Directly outside the cottage is a fenced patio area with outside furniture and a barbecue. The patio overlooks the pond next to the cottage and is fenced, with views across the farm lawn and paddocks to the surrounding rolling hills of Exmoor. We do not guarantee that the patio area is entirely enclosed/dog-proof. There is also an outside tap, handy for washing off dogs or muddy boots after a walk.

In addition to the private patio area, guests are also welcome to explore the farm’s 35 acres, where you will find horses, Exmoor Horn sheep and abundant wildlife, including rare Red Deer which come right up to the pond to drink in summer evenings.

The Piggery is approx 50 metres from the farmhouse where the owners live, and another holiday cottage, The Victorian Wing at Stockham Farm, which sleeps up to 4 guests. These properties have separate access and outside areas.

Equestrian facilities
Just across the garden is stabling for up to 4 horses, should you wish to bring your horse on holiday with you on a DIY basis. Horses are charged at £20 per horse, per night to include use of stable, turn out, straw bedding and hay. You will find bridle paths almost directly from the farm leading you right up onto the moor with barely any roadwork needed.

There is an endless variety of fabulous walks that can commence right from the door – a full day’s trek to Tarr Steps and back, or a circular walk across the fields with panoramic views and through pretty woodland down into the small market town of Dulverton. All the local pubs welcome dogs and their owners!

Parking
There's ample parking for 3 cars right beside the cottage.
There is a dedicated metered electrical vehicle charge point at The Piggery. Usage is recorded and the amount spent paid directly to the owners upon departure.
